Summer Lineup of New Anime & New Seasons

Summer Lineup

Not much to say here, except there is a summation of some newly announced anime series that will be airing and what month they'll be appearing in.  If you have seen...

• Kingdom
• Tamayura
• Symphogear
• Monogatari
• Recorder to Randsell*
• Hakkenden
• Milky Holmes*
• High School DxD
• Loliball
• Teekyuu
• Senyuu

...then you might be interested in seeing the continuation of the series in a new season!  If you're a fan of Fate, there's a spinoff that has the main character being featured as a magical girl, if that's up your alley.

Almost every show comes with a little summation, courtesy of atxpieces over at wordpress.com.  Personally, I think Blood Lad looks pretty interesting since I have looked at the manga briefly.  Go-Home Records looks kind of interesting and cute, though I don't know much about it aside from that summary.  Of course, I've already looked at Recorder, which is quality and adorable.  We've also featured it in one of our weekly games, the adorable and amazing cute one if any of you guys recall~

 Not featured in that above link, another series getting a second season that has quite a few following fans thrilled is Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai!  Another I've never heard of, but myanimelist has this as its episode summary:

"Yuuta Togashi suffered from chuunibyou while he was in middle school. When he graduated, he put that dark history behind him and forgot about it... or he was supposed to. High school was smooth sailing and full of enjoyment—until the unavoidable, sad event occurs. The event that locks Yuuta into a contract with Rikka Takanashi and disrupts his desperately ordinary life."

It has twelve episodes in the first season, and ended airing late 2012.  Not much has been said about what the second season will entail, not even when we can expect it to start airing, but it has been confirmed to be in the works.

Well, that's the news so far.  Be on the lookout for some more summer posts to this blog.  I received some interest in people keeping in contact with the blog and posting pictures of their anime summer exploits.  Let me have it!  As always, I'm excited to for what this next semester holds, and the summer of opportunity between here and there.
